Kelly Rowland didn’t waste any time releasing her new video. While it seemed to take forever for "Lay It On Me" to be released, Kelly has presented "Down For Whatever" much faster.

***Chris Brown talks about his rap career

Even though the public mainly knows Chris Brown as a singer, the man can rhyme. He’s been showing off his skills a lot more lately, but what prompted him to start rapping?

As Chris told FUSE TV, he feels that now is the prefect time for anyone to start rhyming because it’s currently such an open field. That allows for a lot more creativity. "I think it’s more acceptable. It’s kind of like in the ’80s when everybody was trying out the rap thing," Chris said. "Everybody was doing it, but they were dancing and incorporating everything."

Jaleel White cursed by Urkel?

Jaleel White, who’s best known for his role as Steve Urkel on the sitcom “Family Matters,” wants Hollywood to know he’s a serious actor.

“I’m very versatile, but somehow I didn’t earn the tag of being called a versatile actor,” Jaleel told People magazine. “It’s like, what do I have to do to get that [credit]?” he asked.

Jaleel has had other roles, including recent appearances in “Psych,” “Love That Girl” and “Are We There Yet?”

His next project is as host of the new Syfy game show “Total Blackout.”

It seems that will be a welcome change for Jaleel.

"I don’t [miss playing Urkel]," he said. "I really don’t. I’m not trying to get away from it or anything like that, but I don’t miss the role at all—really. I just want to work. I want my daughter to say, ‘I know what Daddy does,’ not what Daddy ‘did.’"
